[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CHXA_VIBCL CHXA_VIBCL] An NAD-dependent ADP-ribosyltransferase (ADPRT), it catalyzes the transfer of the ADP-ribosyl moiety of oxidized NAD onto eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF-2) thus arresting protein synthesis. It probably uses the eukaryotic prolow-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) to enter mouse cells, although there seems to be at least one other receptor as well. Is active against mouse fibroblasts, Chinese hamster ovary eEF-2, brine shrimp (Artemia spp. nauplii) and upon expression in S.cerevisiae.<ref>PMID:18276581</ref> <ref>PMID:19793133</ref> | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CHXA_VIBCL CHXA_VIBCL] An NAD-dependent ADP-ribosyltransferase (ADPRT), it catalyzes the transfer of the ADP-ribosyl moiety of oxidized NAD onto eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF-2) thus arresting protein synthesis.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed == | |||
Certain Vibrio cholerae strains produce cholix, a potent protein toxin that has diphthamide-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase activity against eukaryotic elongation factor 2. Here we present a 1.8A crystal structure of cholix in complex with its natural substrate, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). We also substituted hallmark catalytic residues by site-directed mutagenesis and analyzed both NAD+ binding and ADPribosyltransferase activity using a fluorescence-based assay. These data are the basis for a new kinetic model of cholix toxin activity. Further, the new structural data serve as a reference for continuing inhibitor development for this toxin class. | |||
